Would I qualify for dental implants on the NHS as I suffer from Fibrmyalgia and this makes my denture incredibly uncomfortable?

Q. I\’ve had to have all types of dentures since the age of 7 due to falling onto my front teeth.I now have 7 missing from thr front and I\’m now 47yrs.I suffer from fibrmyalgia and have had it for some 23yrs now.Over the past 4/5 yrs the pain in my upper jaw is becoming quite unbearable with wearing my denture.The relief I get whenever I remove it is vast and wonderful.Would I quailfy for implants through the nhs as I am on diability allowances, as my connective tissue is being compounded by the denture.The pain I\’m in is quite considerable. Thankyou,
A. I\’m sorry but I very much dot you will qualify for nhs implants. They are just not available. Your only hope is a teaching hospital local to you
